Previously Potato worked fine with mutt. My questions are: I'll just interrupt here; did mutt work with that same ~/.muttrc back in potato? If so, was that with the same version of mutt? If you have upgraded mutt along the way, and kept the ~/.muttrc then things _will_ break. > 1.)

There is a sendmailconfig in Debian, much in the same way as for exim. > Thanks for any and all help You're welcome. A good place for problems like this is the mutt-users list, go to http://www.mutt.org/ and find their mailinglists section and subscribe, I've learned tons of good stuff there. > --dale HTH Morten -- UNIX, reach out and grep someone!
